DBA 5000 Series T3 2-Piece Front Slotted Rotor with Black Hat for 2017–2023 Tesla Model 3 (355mm Rotor)
The DBA is a premium 5000 Series T3 2-piece front slotted rotor designed specifically for 2017–2023 Tesla Model 3 Performance and Long Range AWD models equipped with the factory 355mm front brake rotors.
This high-performance rotor features a high-carbon alloy friction ring paired with a lightweight black aluminum hat. The patented T3 bi-directional slot design improves pad bite, clears gases and debris, and delivers consistent braking performance under both street and track conditions.
The 2-piece floating construction allows the rotor ring to expand thermally, reducing stress and unsprung weight while improving heat dissipation.
Key Features
- T3 Bi-Directional Slots – Patented slot design vents gases, improves pad bite, and cleans the friction surface for fade-free braking
- 2-Piece Floating Design – Aluminum hat reduces unsprung weight by up to 2kg per corner and allows thermal expansion
- High Carbon Alloy Rotor Ring – 0.48% carbon content resists warping and cracking under high heat
- Black Alloy Hat – Powder-coated finish for corrosion resistance and enhanced appearance
- Direct Fitment – 355mm x 25mm dimensions match OEM specifications for plug-and-play installation
- Improved Heat Management – Superior thermal capacity for repeated hard braking
